Straight eight block rivaled in size by the straight six battery.

Not only is it huge, its 6 volt too!

My Dodge Charger is built in Canada, and actually looks like a car should, and is a hoot to drive. All these Japanese cars look so boring.

We also won gold in Mens and Women's hockey at the Olympics

Go :canada: Go

sorry couldnt resist :cheers:

What's hockey?
:yawn:
I'm thinking it's possibly what people do in countries that don't have any sun.
No that can't be right, those people just have lots of sex.

Till I moved here to the USA, I never owned a car that didn't have points & rotor or any electronic BS...Now both the commute domestic appliances I have are gadget filled...I just put gas in em & change the oil & rotate the tires.

The big red car however, is more fun

That straight 8 brings back memories. I used to work at a gas station (remember those) when I was in high school and college. We had an older guy that bought old cars and we would get them running for him. He had a 40's something Packard w/ a straight 8, a 1958 Chevy Belair w/ a 348, a early 50's Dodge 2 ton truck w/ a flathead six, among others. What amazed me the most was the emergency brake on the Packard (or was it the Dodge?), a steel/asbestos band around the tail of the transmission.

I work with a guy who won a new Prius at a charity raffle. He said you just pop the lever to the left to get neutral. His car hasn't been recalled yet, but he was planning ahead and test this out.

Man Mitch was funny, RIP.

I think Pringles original intention was to make tennis balls... but on the day the rubber was supposed to show up a truckload of potatoes came. Pringles is a laid-back company, so they just said, "Fuck it, cut em up!"
